    Exploring with an Explorer

    I owned an Explorer 1 (36) for a decade and while I very much liked the watch it always felt a little dainty. I don’t have massive wrists by any stretch, but its diminutive dimensions always bugged...

    I’ve tried a pretty broad range of NATO straps on my old BB 41 Blue and my current BB 58 Black. Everything from Crown and Buckle’s top end, very nice but a bit fiddly to adjust, also most darker C&B...

    I owned a BB41 blue for a good six or so years, a great watch and very versatile. I don’t have particularly big wrists but I didn’t ever find the ‘41 overly large. A couple of months ago I purchased...

    I have an older 36mm Explorer, which initially I loved. But over time I’ve started to feel it’s just too small on the wrist. I’ve just sold a Black Bay 41mm to fund a Black Bay 58 (39mm), which I...

    I suspect Tudor might start leaning into the Royal line a bit more, if the integrated bracelet trend continues, as well as some sort of (spiritual) replacement for the North Flag in a year or so’s...

    Generally underwhelmed by everything from Basel this year, Patek,Rolex,Tag all meh, but Tudor is a spectacular let down. Ken Sato did a homage of the watch the POS is based on a few years and it...

    Haven’t encountered any issues with mine (BB Blue). It’s been in the sea water lots (as well as tons of pools) and apart from a few swirlies on the clasp (ironically from my desk) it still looks as...

    Mont Blanc is developing a new strap attachment which does some of the things you mention. They had one a few years ago but it was a bit crude, let’s wait and see if the next one is better.

    A massive thumbs down from me ref. David Duggan, possibly the worst service I’ve ever received in a watch shop. Rude, unpleasant and tried to pass off an Explorer 1 with a giant chip in it’s crystal....

    I’ve never had that much problem getting AD’s in central London to chuck in a sweetener/ extra. These rarely end up being items of much value though.

    Those guts could eventually end up in all of of Tudor's Chrono's, creating a kind of "reboot" of its chronograph models.
